On episode 110 of the Green Root Podcast (the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance), Chris Searles, ecologist with BioIntegrity.net, shares his results from over a hundred field-tested projects rehydrating forest ecosystems so as to alleviate drought and reduce wildfires.
Host Josh Schlossberg talks with Chris about:
-How trees store and release moisture—evapotranspiration—to create rain.
-How so-called “wildfire fuel reduction” logging counterproductively dries out and heats up forests.
-Chris’ field-tested claims of replenishing water in forests to create localized precipitation (!)
-Forest protection as one of the most important issues of our time.
-Chris’s take on a root cause of the ecological crisis.
The mission of Eco-Integrity Alliance (eco-integrityalliance.org) is to unite U.S. grassroots ecosystem advocates through common campaigns of mutual support.
